    It completely changes the series concept

    It is shot from a different angle which completely changes the show. This style of shooting is reminiscent of Keeping up with the Kardashians and others. We couldn't see much drama and details about characters' love life which is a massive part of Grey's anatomy I.

    Episode ruins next few episodes

    With practically two story lines this episode is pretty much redundant, the style takes a while to adjust to and after watching it the next few episodes are hard to adjust back to, I'd recommend skipping it all together

    Better on a rewatch!

    The actors had fun with this change of format. It's worth it for Derek channeling his very best Michael Scott!

    Good way to move on from the shooting.

    This episode is a different format, which sometimes can be a good surprise on long time series. I really enjoyed it.

    I also think that it was a perfect way to tie all loose ends of the storylines regarding the shooting and move on to the next storyline.

    SPOILERS I didn't think that the mini disagree that Christina and Meredith had was enough of portrayed enough to start the storyline on their fall-out, it just seemed like one of those moments of realization from one side of how affected the other one is, but not to start a little drama between them.

    Other than that, a good surprise for me...

      The arm shown "pinking up" is the same both times, clearly visible as it's the one with the tattoo.
